The Outlander PHEV Power Steering seems to be pretty simple, not much cables there.

Any thoughts?
thanks!

I have no first hand experience but have seen others (youtube) using electric power steering from Prius.

Engine running msg?

I think speed signal ID=215
And ID=308 running engine, turns on the relay inside the electronic unit of the electric amplifier.
